Please yes!
I did a little research and this derives from Verbal Expressions, as explained [1] and implemented [2]. In any case, I'm emphatically in favor. I'm the sort of programmer that needs to write maybe one regex per month, and I'm tired as hell of relearning the human-meaningless syntax for regexs, let alone all the little variations between languages. Not to mention, if it can vastly reduce the number of symbols I have to escape when matching special symbols, so much the better.

- krainboltgreene 13y agoI really need to link those in the readme, thanks! I also discovered on releasing this a really old ruby library that predates either of those and I'm adding that too.
